A year ago, police officers executed a search warrant on a small-town Kansas newspaper, triggering worldwide outrage over the seizing of newspaper equipment. The stress of the raid is said to have helped lead to the death of the publisher's mother. Journalist and professor Steve Wolgast discusses why the raid happened and just why it's so problematic for government to obstruct freedom of the press.
